NORTH FORGE
FIG. 02 · BUILT IN-HOUSEOWN VENTURES · WHAT WE RUN ON

Systems we drew, then built.

We built and ran these AI and operations systems in our own construction ventures first. Every outcome below is something we lived, not a pitch, and where it is client work we say so. The discipline is the same on every job: measured, to spec, built to hold.

HJD Builders, Belle Vie, Sherpa Pros, and BldSync are ventures North Forge owns and operates, not independent clients. More on our ventures →

ESTIMATE TURNAROUND

A builder and contractor splitting the day between the jobsite and the office. Platform software cost more in onboarding and setup than it gave back, so HJD went to automation instead: the BldSync beta for estimates, code research, and SOPs, plus North Forge's voice-to-CRM intake on the main line.

BRAND TO BACKEND

A design studio promoting design services and millwork through a brand and site built with new AI tools, without the standard AI look. North Forge is wiring the backend next: automation for the client portal, FFE, modeling, marketing, and procurement, with content creation to follow.

SIX-FIGURE DISCIPLINE

A marketplace for trades and handyman work: clients post day-scope jobs, vetted trades pick them up, and every job runs with the discipline of a six-figure project managed by a builder. Built to serve both sides, powered by a private BldSync platform.

THE PRODUCT BEHIND THE WORK

The product behind the work. BldSync is our in-house AI toolkit for what contractors actually do: quoting, estimating, SOP building, and code research, grounded in real codes and jobsite data instead of a generic AI's wide net. HJD runs the beta; a private BldSync platform powers Sherpa Pros. It is the standard kit a Company Build or Managed Retainer runs on.
